Custom Edit Form Strange Exception

I have a custom list, which starts a workflow on item creation. After few simple steps in workflow (tryed both state/sequentional), my custom EditForm wont show up, only exception is shown up (as bellow). I don't know where to get more information about
where is the exception raising, because the workflow is not raising any exceptions. Can you pls help me? I have no idea what 'Parameter: s' is.

Thank you a lot

hi, i have created a new list using sharepoint designer 2007. now i inserted a custom list form to modify some field and add new ones.
when i finished i will tight my new custom list to the custom form.
what i want to know is. i see the status field in my new form. and i only want the status field to appear in the edit form for the one that has the permission to edit the status.
then i tought of open the list in my browser and go to the list settings. but what i notice is i dont see my fields i have modified in sharepiont designer in the columns section i only see the ones from the existing list.

thnx

Hi,
I created one custom edit form for my document library, replaced default save and cancel buttons with input buttons and added the form action to them. Then I set my page as default edit form.
When I click edit button, my custom form opens in modal pop up. When I try to save the item by clicking new save button, item gets saved but pop remains as it is. Now, I want the modal pop up to get closed and navigate to page other than the parent
page with some parameters after I click save button.
How can I achieve this?
Thanks!!

I can create a custom edit form in Designer, but by default I get a DataFormWebPart with an XSLT. I don't know how to configure the data source to pull all versions so that they could be shown in the XSLT. If I can't use the DFWP and have to
do everything custom, please provide details and/or links.

This is for WSS 3.0. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Latest versions of MOSS 2007 and SPD with all SP and applicable hotfixes.

I create a new edit form by right-clicking on the original edit form and selecting "New from existing page". Then I set to "default to master content" and then add a custom list form. It works fine....attachments and everything.

However, once I make any changes whatsoever within the newly-created DataFormWebPart, like moving a field to another cell or adding some text, the attach file function starts acting weird. You hit the "Attach File" button on the toolbar and
the DataForm is hidden and the attach file area is displayed as usual, but when you select a file and hit "OK", it simply blanks the attach file field and doesn't return to the DataForm. You can select other files and attach them fine, but
you have to hit "cancel" on the attach file function in order to return to the DataForm. When you do that, the newly-added files are there and are saved properly when you save the list item.

I've spent days searching for a solution for this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: This issue is also present on our development farm. If nothing else, can somebody take a few minutes and try to duplicate?

Since we're using WSS 3.0 and not MOSS 2007, we have to create and use ASP forms for any custom Workflow Task Edit pages instead of being able to use InfoPath forms (which would be nice...maybe some day we'll step up to MOSS). The custom Workflow Edit Pages are used for custom Task Content Types that we create so that our Workflow Tasks can have additional fields beyond the standard Workflow Task fields. Once you've collected the values for the Task fields from the user on the ASP Workflow Task Edit form, the typical procedure is to create a hashtable and fill the hashtable with key/value pairs that represent the names of your Task fields and their associated values, as such:

// This function is called when the user clicks the Save/Submit button
// on the Custom Task Edit ASP form
public void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Create a hashtable that will be used to update the values of task fields
Hashtable taskHash = new Hashtable();
// For each field, create two values in the hashtable. If the field name
// matches a field in the Task content type, the field name will not be
// searchable as a key within the ExtendedProperties hashtable. So
// create a second field that is a duplicate of the first but having a
// name that doesn't exactly match an existing field in the Task
// content type. That way it will be a searchable ke

What I am trying to do is create custom edit forms for different content types within the same document library.....so basically I have done the following:

I have created two site content types and reconfigured my library to use CT's.

I then connected to my site using SPD.

When examining my library I can see that I have the two CT that I added earlier. I then created a new editform for one the CTs using the top ribbon menu and in the drop down box associated it to the CT. I did not select this as the default form
for the library.

I then updated the library CT (not site CT) with the url to form in the editform properties.

When I create a document and edit the properties it works fine - totally as expected. However when I upload a document the default EditForm for the library is used and I can select the CT to associate the document to. When I choose the CT with
the custom form the new edit form is not found and I get a page not found error - http 400.

I have a problem. I don't know why custom edit form is behaving like that.

I have a choice drop down with values " ","Yes","No". For custom new form, I can insert null values and everything is working fine.

But coming to this custom edit form which I created. While editing, if we set a value to null and submit the form. It is getting the "Yes" as the value. It is skipping the null value and placing the "Yes" value. I have kept the default value for choice
drop down as " ".(null too).

I don't know why it is not showing null value. Do guys have any idea or if came across anything like this. Please help

Trying to create a custom edit form. What i do is drag over the text box and bring it in to the page and specify is a what data field and format as a list form field. It displays perfectly in sharepoint designer but when i go to the actual page. It says
"Unable to display this Web Part. To troubleshoot the problem, open this Web page in a Microsoft SharePoint Foundation-compatible HTML editor such as Microsoft SharePoint Designer. If the problem persists, contact your Web server administrator."

Can someone please help with this because im trying to create a new employee application form or is there another easier way of doing this. Please help.

Can someone give me a clue of how to connect a specific Custom List View with a custom Edit Form.

I have created a custom list, and I have created a custom view attached to that list. I also have a custom CustomEditForm.aspx form created using SharePoint Designer.

I want to associate the Custom Edit form directly with one and one view only for a given list so that when the user clicks the edit icon in that view, they are linked to the custom Edit Form. But all other views including the All Items view behave
as normal, i.e. using the normal EditForm.aspx.

I can replace the EditForm.aspx in the Url with my custom form and it works fine, but I can't seem to figure out how to connect the custom view edit link to the custom form. It always takes me back to the default EditForm.aspx page.

I have investigated the href="{$URL_Edit}?ID={@ID}" onclick="GoToPage('{$URL_Edit}?ID={@ID}') in code, which appears to be how the URL is generated but
I'm not sure how or where best to set the value of URL_Edit parameter so that I point to the custom Edit Form. This is somehow getting passed into the custom view, but I'm not sure how best to set it for a specific non-AllItems view.

Enterprise Library is a collection of application functionality blocks that you can re-use in your application for common functionality you'd otherwise have to write again and again. Here Jay Hilyard explains how to use them.

Exception handling semantics in .NET are based on type, so you can create custom exceptions that have their own properties and methods. In .NET, exceptions are first-class citizens, and since they're the built-in error handling mechanism, all .NET-compliant languages must support exceptions. In addition, COM+ services are available to .NET code as Enterprise Services, so you can leverage exceptions in your Enterprise Services design.In this article the author describes custom exceptions, throwing exceptions across COM interop boundaries, and working with Enterprise Services.
